Hi Norman

Your radio is not only missing the dial scale, but also the metal mounting flange, which has a set screw for mounting to the tuning shaft. You will need both the scale AND the flange.

The Model 38 dial is unique to that Model. The Model 60 scale is the same size, but the frequency calibration of the second band is different, since the frequency coverage of Model 38 is somewhat different from Model 60.

If you can wait a few days, I'll try to get a photo of the dial scale and mounting flange from a Model 60. In the meantime, take a look at http://cgi.ebay.com/320194413227 , which is for a Model 60 chassis. It shows the dial scale and the metal flange.
